What do you think about my 1993 Lincoln Cent
ImNotAMinion replied to ImNotAMinion's topic in US, World, and Ancient Coins
It is my understanding that acetone should not be used on cooper. Also and unfortunately, my hands are not as steady as I'd like. But this coin is DDO & DDR which makes it worthy for submission. Also, since 2017 I have purchased two uncirculated products from the US mint, and in comparison i suspects my penny is in uncirculated condition. And while reminiscing YouTube grades & eBay postings & sells, I will submit my 1993 Phili for grading. -

2.50g Cents & 3.10g Cents
ImNotAMinion replied to ImNotAMinion's topic in Newbie Coin Collecting Questions
This scale calibrates on power cycle. But I'll have to do a manual calibration. So true that "small date & large date; zinc/2.50g & copper/3.11g" 1982 Cents are a phenomena, but are now in abundance. And the Philadelphia Mint does not mint Lincoln Cents. I do suspect at some point a P planchet may show on the Shield Cents? Which transition 1982 cent would you say is the rarest? -

2.50g Cents & 3.10g Cents
ImNotAMinion replied to ImNotAMinion's topic in Newbie Coin Collecting Questions
Thank you Conder101. I'll expect additional input because I've got a 1990 N.M.M./No Mont Mark/Philly weighing in at 2.8g. -
2.50g Cents & 3.10g Cents
ImNotAMinion replied to ImNotAMinion's topic in Newbie Coin Collecting Questions
However, there are multitudes more 3.0 Cents than 3.11. I've seen 2.9g. That's the one I wish I had kept. I got a new scale AUGUST10TH2021 and have seen seen less than 5 one cent coins weighing 3.11g out of hundreds. -

At what gram will a zinc-planchet-cent raise suspension it maybe copper? Thanks For Your Input, Robert

Well, you're wrong. I MERELY used MD'S metaphorically opposed to my overall concerns. BUT thanks anyway for your perspectives.

Thank You Hoghead515, I can imagine that inspecting coins & bills is a difficult task. Nobody is perfect. I'm sure the men and women examining our currency/coins does there best day-in and day-out. And where would Numismatica be without defects becoming errors?

Thank You RWB, Obviously right that AnyAll abnormalities from the original are defects. However, with publishings like, "Cherrypicker's Guide, etc." By Mr. Stanton & Mr. Fivaz with a handful of others choosing "picking" certain defects & determining values on these errors, but calling out; let's say, "Die Shifting Errors" as basically junk I take issues with that and AnyAll remaining errors that are ignored because a few guys & or ladies says so. All I am saying is, give AnyAll defects RESPECT/recognition with degrees of severity & value opposed too a few accumulative folks throughout Numismatica history declaring what is/what is not acceptable by literally picking and choosing. I am just 4 years into Numismatica and haven't yet organized my tiny collection and with much to learn, but this is an entity across continents which I observes the limitations by a few constricts the full splendors of Numismatica. Again, I believe that AnyAll defects by the U.S.MINT should be acceptable as errors and based on their severity & numbers discovered & MS, might determined the defect's/error's value? Thanks again RWB

Thank you BlakeEik, Okay, now that I know the USMint post's these errors in NGC Forums, then this addresses one of my perplexities therein the upper echelons of the magnificent business/hobby of Numismatica; & that is why does only a very few coin guru's decides what & which error is more prominent than the next &OR which/what/why/how error(s) deserves zero monetary value(s), let alone deserves zero acknowledgements as a legitimate error regardless that the U.S.Mint classified(s) them as errors? At least the U.S.Mint should at least categorize the severity of their error opposed too just a few guru's whom likely have hordes of the errors they decided(s) too call errors.

JustBob, Thank you for your input on doubled die(s). And however, there remains many experts whom has been/are still imbedded in "numismatics" as long or longer than you whom adamantly refutes your views. And personally, as novice I am in numismatica, and seeing/hearing different perspectives is as diverse as is this cool/intriguing hobby/business/entity of Numismatics. That first question should have been more thorough. Fundamentally, I have complained since 2017 how, especially, "die shifting" is not a qualified error because what appears too be a select few snobs chose(s) too omit certain flaws therein the mint/minting Process of creating coins that is. By doing so, omitting obvious errors in creating coins absolutely dwarfs/restrains the splendor of Numismatica's beautiful diversity. Oh, I 99.99% am unscramble. And spotting YouTube crowd-pleasers is preschool.
